Vote on exploring fluoridation pushed back to June Tynwald
Fluoridation of the water supply was a big topic in Tynwald this week, with the Social Affairs Policy Review Committee Report on oral health in our children presented to the court.
A number of recommendations were presented, including a request from the Council of Ministers for a research paper into fluoridation.
The request divided opinion amongst members and it was deferred for a vote until next month's sitting.
But Dr Michelle Haywood says now is the time to look at 'good quality evidence' and make an informed plan:

'Knives and sharp implements' left outside charity shops
Manx Radio to 'formally investigate' complaint from veteran broadcaster
Temporary ambulance station established at Castletown Coastguard Station
Owners advised to keep pets out of riverĀ
